Jump Rhythm
I am learning about Ableton/Live and play with the app almost every day. Here I took the jump rope recording, slowed it down, made a few adjustments, and it almost sounds like a drum kit.

Well, that was obviously much too easy. I shall think of something more difficult for next weekend.
Go here to watch the video.
The sound was recorded with a Rode NT4 microphone into a Sound Devices 722 recorder.
Here is sound #2. I imagine this should be easier than the first one.
The winner gets to pick a song or album from my Bandcamp catalog.
Since I posted Guess the Sound last week on Sunday I will post the second installment of this popular game tomorrow, Sunday, at noon Mountain Daylight Time.
Sting, Shirazee – Englishman / African In New York – YouTube
Why does Sting wear a big hat and carry a cane in this video? Is the song about him or about someone else?
Don’t look it up on the interwebs because that’s no fun.
Woah, I’m an alien, I’m a legal alien, I’m a German in Santa Fe… dum di dum
The song, from the 1987 album “Nothing Like the Sun”, is about Quentin Crisp, an Englishman who lived in New York for a number of years. A 2009 biographical film about Crisp was named Englishman In New York after Sting’s song.
